Gov. Scott Walker was the last candidate to speak at #RSG15 before host Erick Erickson wrapped things up for the day (no, Megyn Kelly won’t be appearing tonight in place of Donald Trump), but his speech managed to energize the crowd and elicit several standing ovations.

Breitbart: Scott Walker: We Should Be Talking About Hillary Clinton’s Worldwide Record of Failure

"CLEVELAND, Ohio: GOP presidential candidate Gov. Scott Walker stepped in to keep the peace when Fox News anchor Bret Baier was going back and forth with GOP frontrunner Donald Trump on the topic of his donations to Democrats and the Clinton Foundation.

Baier asked Trump what he received from Hillary Clinton and Rep. Nancy Pelosi in exchange for the money he donated.

Trump responded, “For Hillary Clinton, I said be at me wedding and she came to my wedding.”

Trump went on to explain that Clinton had no choice, because he gave to her foundation, which was supposed to be for charity.

“I didn’t know her money would be used on private jets going all over the world. It was.”

“Mr. Trump, we’re going to move on. Coming back to you Governor Walker,” Baier directed.

Walker responded, “One second on this. We spend a lot of time talking about Hillary Clinton, pinging us back and forth. Let’s be clear, we should be talking about Hillary Clinton on that last subject, because everywhere in the world that Hillary Clinton touched is more messed up today than before her and the President took office.”

Trump echoed Walker’s statement, “It’s true.”

Berger stole items from the National Archives for the Clintons when there were investigations about 9-11 [2001] - on the Clinton "after-action report," no less.

Interesting in light of Hillary and the Benghazi 9-11 [2012] "video" lie.

Clinton adviser on Israel [Sandy Berger] had commercial ties to Middle East

Walker caved to the PC police in defending Megyn Hussein-Kelly. He’s dead to me.

I don’t want Walker and I don’t want Bush.

What is RedState? Perhaps they should be “Seeing Red State”

You know, people are entitled to support whoever they want in this campaign, and I don’t fault the candidates for having to do fundraisers and get donors - it is what it is. It costs a lot to win an election, so, I have to really feel deep down that a person is running for the right reasons, and not to just have a legacy, power or perks. When the candidates take money from donors, they are beholden to them - we all know that. It’s sad, but true - just ask Trump - he tells it like it is. He has bought politicians, and unfortunately, most aren’t as rich as he is. So, what is my point? Heck, if I know. LOL I will vote for Walker if he is the nominee, but, I just feel that he will have his strings pulled too. We have to have a new president, so what are we going to do? I surely won’t vote for Bush.

Do we know if the people who purchased tickets to see Trump were given refunds, or were there any example of them being upset? Was the turn out less than expected?

Kind of reminds me of the McShame and Linda show. That’s were Bush stops to quickly and Walker gets a dirty nose.

True. Has there been any outrage. He was advertised as the surprise guest speaker. I was going to go down and see him.

Look at this one:

Faux News and Facebook- bought and paid for by Saudi supporters of Bush Empire.

As far as these numbers, maybe Walker was asked twice the questions about Her Thighness and King Butt OR he just dodged a hard question he did not want to answer.

You got the data on that, huh?

Your peddling Fox Leftist News propaganda here.

We don't want another Bought Off political hack like Scotty ‘ Koch Brothers ‘ Walker.

Scotty Walker is Owned by K street Donors and in particular the Koch a Brothers who are trying to ram thru Amnesty.

Do you work for Walker campaign ?

you do nothing but Astroturf non stop here for one candidate and it's always a DC Owned Political puppet ?

In 2012 you did nothing but post Perry propaganda and now it's Walker.

Both Perry and Walker are clients of George Wills wife a DC communication expert aka Fat Cat professional Liar.

....................................................

They were debating each other. Not Hillary Clinton. Her name being constantly mentioned looked terrible to me.

I thought Walker looked out of place at the debate.

Still trying to figure this exchange out:

• KELLY: Governor Walker, in February you said that we needed to gain partners in the Arab world. Which Arab country not already in the U.S. led coalition has potential to be our greatest partner?

WALKER: What about then, we need to focus on the ones we have. You look at Egypt, probably the best relationship we’ve had in Israel, at least in my lifetime, incredibly important.

You look at the Saudis — in fact, earlier this year, I met with Saudi leaders, and leaders from the United Arab Emirates, and I asked them what’s the greatest challenge in the world today? Set aside the Iran deal. They said it’s the disengagement of America. We are leading from behind under the Obama-Clinton doctrine — America’s a great country. We need to stand up and start leading again, and we need to have allies, not just in Israel, but throughout the Persian Gulf.”

Then Scott Walker was asked about Iran: “To me, you terminate the deal on day one, you reinstate the sanctions authorized by Congress, you go to Congress and put in place even more crippling sanctions in place, and then you convince our allies to do the same. This is not just bad with Iran, this is bad with ISIS. It is tied together, and, once and for all, we need a leader who’s gonna stand up and do something about it.”

What does it mean, “This is not just bad with Iran, this is bad with ISIS. It is tied together . . .”

Does this sound like someone ready to lead on foreign policy? Egypt is in Israel? Who knew?

Walker isn’t a political hack and he certainly isn’t bought off.

If anyone here is peddling ‘leftist propaganda’ here its you.
